Was there more than one version of picture on the original box or was it just an update of the box? Always liked that image - was certainly the only Airfix model I ever bought more than one of. Strange looks from the man in post office as the young boy buys the same model he bought the other week.

That is great news about the Airfix Angel Interceptor. There was the wonderful Roy Cross painting as featured in the recent Airfix book. I have a more recent edition of the kit with a similar painting, perhaps by Roy Cross, so yes there are two different pieces of artwork, both excellent. It would be great to see Airfix release more Gerry Anderson kits, including the couple from the series which were never made.

I bought one in the 1980s that had a photo of the made-up model kit itself - not a patch on the original painting!

That was during the the period that Palitoy owned Airfix. All the box art was replaced with photos of (badly built models) This was because Palitoy was part of the American company General Mills and legistlation in America said toy boxes had to show what was inside.
The Roy Cross artwork (which still exists as far as i am aware) was used all through the 60s and 70s. the only thing that changed was the Airfix logo.
